Despite a disappointing record, writer Ben Solak suggests Patriots fans have reasons to be optimistic about quarterback Drake Maye, akin to the hope Commanders fans hold for Jayden Daniels. While Daniels delivered a stellar rookie year with impressive statistics, Maye faced significant challenges, including poor offensive line play and lackluster receiving options. Solak emphasizes that the differing circumstances render Maye's performance commendable, suggesting he deserves similar confidence from fans as his peers who performed under better conditions.
Statistically, [Maye] didn't hold a candle. But degree of difficulty? Maye was playing a completely different sport.
Jayden Daniels had a historically productive rookie quarterback season. However, I'm still as - if not more - impressed by how well Drake Maye played on that terrible Patriots offense last season.
